I am mainly recapping this show because Dorit and PK are on it pretending like they are home owners. The reality is that Paul has a minor interest in the LLC that owns the property. They have been living there while it was being renovated. Kind of like that guy that used to work for Jeff Lewis and lived in Valley View.
Why is this show an hour and a half now? Both episodes I’ve seen have been ninety minutes long. Is that really necessary?
David talks with James on the way over to the Kemsleys and Jim wishes him luck because they are difficult clients. This is not surprising. The house was purchased by the LLC for $6.6 million in 2016 I’m not really sure how much interest in the house Paul actually has. The house was grossly overpriced at $12.75 million initially in July of 2017 less than a year after it was purchased. It has been continuously on the market ever since. David tells us that Paul is a very successful business man and he has know him for years. Did he not know that Paul fled London after filing a huge bankruptcy? And that now he owes millions of dollars to the Bellagio and that some dude name Nicos Kirzis loaned him $1.2 million dollars and has come to get in line with the Bellagio to seize all of his assets? He doesn’t sound very successful to me.
Dear God, David is simply delusional. After saying that PK is a hardass he says that everyone loves Dorit and her lovely personality balances PK out. Is this the guy with the addiction issues? Because I think he must be high.
The house really is gorgeous.
The house was reduced to $10.95 and Paul says he has just reduced the price (aka his LLC is wanting to divest of this property) to under nine million. So it looks like this was filmed last March and the price was $8,995,000. Then in September it was listed with a new broker for $8,745,000, It remains for sale today at $8,25 and has been on the market for 95 days with the current broker which is at LEAST the FOURTH broker and for almost 19 months in total without a buyer. Paul claims that the Altman brothers tried to get the listing. This is probably storyline like that fake wine spillage at the open house on the previous episode.
Tracy Maltas is just sold Rose McGowan’s house. Tracy is friends with her so she is helping her have an estate sale has she has to sell everything she owns to pay lawyers to fight Harvey Weinstein. It’s so sad she has to do this. They are selling her shoes, clothes, handbags, everything. It’s heartbreaking. They are hoping to get $250,000 for all of it. By the way, Tracy has a new female agent on her team who is drop dead gorgeous. They got $197,000 from the estate. Rose was pleased.
Back at Chez Kemsley, the Brits are about to find out why no one is interested in this property. The driveway is ridiculous and the street it is on is already jammed with traffic even without a broker’s open. The property itself is gorgeous but the location is horrific when it comes to getting in and out of the driveway. Their “Beverly Hills Hotel” theme is not going to compensate for this problem. James is pissed that David spent $6K for the open house. He should be. That was a loss.
Every time David comes to PeeKay’s house he just walks right in the front door. I don’t even do that at my sister’s house unless she is expecting me. You don’t just walk into anyone’s home like that.
David claims to have an offer of $7.45 million. If that is true they should jump on it. That is almost a million in profit less whatever they spent on the renovations. This property is already dead on the vine at this point and now it’s dead and completely rotten. The potential buyer went to $7.7. PK demands to speak to the buyers agent. I am not sure why David is allowing this. PK says he will sell for $8.5 best and final. David and PK get into it and it looks like they will eventually part ways. This is all bullshit. You know how I know? Because PK says he needs to talk to Dorit about it. Dorit doesn’t have any interest in the house but a few other people do. It’s not up to PK to accept the price. He is not the person in control of the sale. This is all bullshit in hopes that someone will watch this show and buy the house. It’s all free marketing by Bravo and so far it has not worked.
The next thing we see is a chyron that says “Two weeks later PK and Dorit’s house was robbed, they pulled the house off the market until further notice. ” Bullshit. Dorit never once mentioned being robbed and she goes to the press with a hangnail. When a man who broke in to numerous celebrity houses was recently arrested, I reached out to Kyle to ask if any of the loot on the website was hers. She said no. Then suddenly Dorit started saying that she was robbed to. I do not believe her, your mileage may vary. In my opinion Dorit and PK are the Teresa and Joe of Beverly Hills and it is just a matter of time before one or both of them end up behind bars. Also the house was NEVER taken off the market. As I said it has been on continuously since July of 2017.
Million Dollar Listing really debased themselves having these clowns on.
I can’t promise I will have time for MDLLA recaps but if I do, do you want them?
I definitely want your recaps on MDLLA. PK was even more of a jerk than usual last night. I am waiting for Dorit & PK to end up in prison.
I couldn’t believe all the BS spewing from Doritos and PeeKayy. So false. I agree, mdlla went way down on my watch list!!
I haven’t watched my episode on TiVo yet, but I just want to jump in and thank you for the recap, and add my vote of interest in future MDLLA write-ups!
We taped it – and will be watching it either tonite or this weekend. I thought I heard one or the other say they lease the home they are selling – one of them said this in the first or second episode they were on.
I like all the MDL and appreciate your recap. thanks TT
Taped it? Are you still using a VCR in 2019?! 😋
If you have time, yes! Just wondering how Dorit can look and act so calm, cool and collected with serious financial issues. Also, how can she possibly be attracted to PK.. she’s annoying but very attractive. He is icky.
If really love you to recap this show :). I was wondering if Bravo set this up as a teaser for the new RHoBH season or to try and get a crossover ala Bethenny and Fredrik
Duh!! (Not meant disrespectfully I promise)!! But I don’t think for a minute that house would be on MDLLA if not for the “crossover” effect. And I feel like people in LA (that British dude David?) say they “know ” someone when in actuality have maybe met them once. I really don’t say I “know” someone unless I’ve been to their house, or at least have had regular contact with them. I’ll say “I’ve met them” or some such thing. I don’t believe for a minute David “knew” PK. Oh this sub-culture of “friends” that Bravo has created!! They ALL probably “know each other “!! Now!!
That is a pretty nasty thing to say about someone YOU do not even know yourself. We here in Los Angeles are not that much different than anyone else in a big city. It is entirely possible they knew each other from Bravo events over the years.David and his partner are respected agents in Los Angeles and so far this year have outsold the Altman Brothers at 500 million dollars and counting.
What is nasty about pointing out David doesn’t know Paul Kemsley. It was obvious he didn’t know him when he said he was a respected business man. He’s also not the owner of the house. The whole thing was fake as fuck.
This is to Lawstangel
West coast comments are everywhere, blog, sitcoms, advertising etc. Guessing you are as tired of how the LA area and the people there are talked about, as I am about California comments.
We are so uninformed about our areas, the state and people, we need others to explain how we are out here.
Nancy, as a ex California girl you know we are diverse so we don’t speak the same way, you are my semi hero on how well you have done/worked your way up and out of situations. The MDL British men seem to me kinder and work harder than some of the other agent’s.
TT this is` not directed to you.
I was curious what your tea would be on PK and Dorit’s “home.” Very messy indeed! I hate the 8,000 steps to the front door, and the driveway!? Yikes all the teetering around on 8 inch heels, talk about hazardous, that’s a crazy entrance. The home once safely in is beautiful. I cannot imagine being in debt to a casino, least of all that kind of money. These people are seriously living on the edge…
Josh said “tract home” home maybe one too many times, he can be such a snob but I lurv watching him.
Oh Rose, how horrible. Life really isn’t fair but God love her for sticking to her guns and seeing this through no matter the cost! I wanted those RKO letters! Tracy seems to be doing ok post divorce and yes her new agent is drop dead gorgeous.
I love peeking inside homes and lifestyles of the rich…I’ll probably always watch this so I’d love it if you’d keep recapping Tamara.
Josh is such a snob, but I still love him. He does know his real estate … he always seems very knowledgeable and informed about the properties he’s selling
I would love recaps on this show!
I haven’t seen this episode yet but I wanted to get my vote in. Yes please TT! I would love for you recap this show!
Um didn’t I read that Rose was in court for drugs on an airplane or something like that She claimed the Weinstein’s team planted it Which I’m sorry I don’t believe and now I’m thinking the sale was for this court
Case as opposed to Harvey’s She’s not
In that suit in nyc Why does she need money for a lawsuit she’s not a part of?
I wondered the same thing about Rose, but I wasn’t aware she had a recent arrest also.
PK and Dorit appear to be massive frauds. I remember TT mentioning before they didn’t own the home, so what is PK doing blustering around accusing James of getting ready to “wind him down” where the price is concerned? He strikes me as the equivalent of someone in London’s street markets who is a major hustler- always making things seem as though they’re bigger and better than they really are. Even his accent is a bit off, not high class at all for someone who seems to have run in very rarefied circles, so he may have come from a fairly humble background. I think his successful days are behind him, but he’s still putting on airs. I’ve never had massive amounts of money, so I don’t know how rich people do business, but why would someone so supposedly successful need to have a multimillion-dollar line of credit with a casino, that they don’t then pay back? Something appears to be fishy in the Hemsley lifestyle.
P.S. yes, please keep recapping the show. It’s really entertaining, especially the rivalry between the different realtors. Love it and great recap!
As a fellow Brit, Peekaays accent is nowhere NEAR “high-class.”
That accent is pure cockey market trader and he’s not even TRYING to hide it.
*cockney
We are literally too dumb to know the difference. For some reason it is ingrained in us that any British accent means you are smarter and fancier than us.
This is also the reason so many are fooled by Lisa Vanderpump.
😂
Now, Lisa’s voice is someone trying to HIDE their roots. She goes to great effort to be seen as a Fancy English Lady, but you occasionally hear the facade crack and she shows she’s not exactly aristocracy…
Well not all of us are too “dumb”to know the difference. PK literally oozes “market trader” from every pore and every syllable.
Same for the classless Ken Todd
But I think Lisa VdP is from a “higher class” background than Ken. He married her for the “class” and she married him for the drugs, money, and slavishness.
You are never going to convince the hardcore LVP fans of any of this. They don’t even seem to care about there long list of lawsuits against them here in the US.
She sounds very pretty and fancy. SHE HAS SWANS. lol.
There’s MO WAY you could run clubs in London in the ’80’s and NOT have massive amounts of drugs specifically coke around. Maybe the mask will slip this season
Drugs?
(and no I am not an LVP fan)
Important to point out that market trader refers to someone who sells low priced junk from a street stall. It’s not market trader as in someone who trades on the stock market.
I haven’t watched RHOBH continuously but I noticed Dorit’s faux accent failed completely quite a few times on this episode. There were a number of stretches of her talking that could have sounded like a regular girl from Kansas City, none of her usual affectations whatsoever.
Well, in her case it would be a regular girl form Woodbury, Connecticut.
Y’all need to be more informed with regard to the Rose situation. I don’t have time to break it down for you but the TRUE information is out there. and you are sadly misinformed.
I couldn’t bring myself to watch, but i am grateful to you to learn what the two grifters are up to.
Thank you.
Josh makes me laugh out loud. Love the recap
Your recaps are my everything. I do not like Dorit and PeeKay makes me ill. I will admit to liking the few way too short glimpses of Boy George. I was annoyed that we were teased with Boy George and then got like 90 seconds for an appearance. I do like 95% of MDLLA and your thoughts are always insightful and appreciated. I am still devastated you did not recap Dirty John, but I get it.
Wasn’t this show good in the beginning? I remember watching and enjoying it. Sure there was some manufactured bravo shit here and there but it mostly seemed to be a show about ridiculous real estate agents and their ridiculous clients. Bringing the Joe and Tre of Beverly Hills, love that, on for a ratings boost and free advertisement is low even by Bravo standards. My vote is don’t waste your time on recaps. I’d read them and occasionally watch the show but I wouldn’t want to watch weekly and work as hard as you do on recaps for this show.
No, no, no, Amanda! Tamara lives to keep us happy, right TT?
She does keep us looney toons happy! 🙂 Dorit and Pee-Kay pretending to be rich is just crazy. How do ppl even do that?? I’m seriously curious. I’d love to buy a house but don’t have quite the credit history since I’m a widow and the first half of adulthood was mostly in my late husband’s name. I’ve got a few years but I really can’t imagine not owning the couch I’m sitting on or the iPad that allows my late night posting. Neither are the latest greatest models, but they are mine. Lol
Yes to recaps of mdl la. Why does bravo cast so many couples who divorce and couples near bankruptcy?
Do they cast people who have problems so they’re more likely to do whatever bravo says to do?Dorit is also being sued by her bathing suit company partner. Uhh with her fake accent .
Because most well adjusted people do not want their life on television?
I enjoy MDLLA especially more since the RHOC is annoying AF with that Coyote Gina. The only interest for me with that show is watching the scenes in my neighborhood..
So, yes, I am hoping you will re-cap MDLLA.
I love MDL LA, and this episode just really ruined it for me to be honest. We all know Bravo loves to make shit up for the cameras but this was something else. And while I feel sorry for Rose McGowan, I felt a little less bad for her having to sell off all her worldly possessions when I heard she wasn’t there because she was in Paris for two weeks to attend fashion week.
She was in Paris because she fled the country to get away from Harvey Weinstein. She is the one responsible for outing him and he was setting her up at every turn in the US.
Sorry but she didn’t flee. The other women in the Weinstein story didn’t flee. McGowan is seriously mentally unstable. You don’t “flee” to Paris Fashion Week — you have to book those seats months ahead.
Exactly. I lost any empathy for Rose when she defended the child molester Asia Argento. Talk about having your double standard outed. Her first reaction was to tell people to be gentle with Asia, yet she felt perfectly OK condemning any man on mere accusation alone. No proof required, no trial necessary, And certainly no gentleness implored.
After Rose found out about Argento’s incident with the youngun, she expressed disappointment that Argento kept the incident a secret. She did not slam Argento, she behaved with class. We need to remember that this was filmed months ago and that MUCH MORE has come out on Beastly Weinstein since then. Because she started this investigation, she got caught in the crossfire of Weinstein’s team trying to salvage his reputation by tainting hers — a classic move in many rape trials.

TT please do a deep dive on Rose McGowan. She basically tried to shakedown HW for more money, he refused and that is one of the reasons she went public. Yes, she was busted for coke at Dulles and after screaming set up(it was in her wallet that she left on the plane) she has gone with a plea bargain. McGowan is her own worst enemy.
We’ll find out. Rose has her own reality show coming soon. Cannot recall the name of it, though.
Citizen Rose. A docuseries. I don’t care if Rose is a bit off. She was instrumental in exposing HW for the rapist he is and I applaud her for it.
Hear, hear
Citizen Rose already happened. a year or more ago. Rose is fucked up no doubt. She has some issues and may be self medicating with more than alcohol like us commoners.
But I believe her. And she did call the child molester who drove Anthony Bourdain to suicide (allegedly) out on her bullshit.
Also I read OvereducatedOpinion ‘s nic as Over educated DOLPHIN And it cracks me up. I love their posts they make me smile.
I was hoping you would do a recap of this. I was confused about the PK and Dorit thing. I know they don’t “own” that house. Seemed so obvious that it was a set up. And I forgot how much they both annoy me, glad I could be reminded right before RHOBH airs. Also, that house is terrible. But that is just my taste. I would never buy it for any amount of money. I think if I had millions to spend, I would be incapable of making a decision. There are just way too many options.
Anyway, boo Dorit and PK. I hate them both. Their kids are cute though.
Thanks for clearing up a few questions I had regarding Dorit & PK.
Tamara — sorry to rain on the parade, but a few observations on the phoniness of the Rose McGowan tale here. First, there is no civil litigation anywhere at present between her and Weinstein. My husband’s a lawyer and he checked. Next: her only pending litigations are the criminal trial against her for drug possession and the civil case against her by the tranny/panny “guy” who she slept with when he was 17.
Rose McGowan is mentally ill. Sorry, but her episode with Weinstein TWENTY TWO years ago is not worth post-trumatic syndrome. It’s not like she was on patrol in Iraq and some terrorist planted a bomb next to ehr truck. McGowan is a total phony, drama queen, came from some hippie family that was so drugged up they couldn’t see straight. She belongs in a hospital, not a courtroom.
And sorry Tracy my-daddy’s-rich, Rose was hardly a major Hollywood star.
I like the MDL shows a lot, but please, they have trouble getting legit people to have cameras follow their house sales so yes, they fabricate about half of it. MDLNY is much more “real”
Correction to self: all of these deranged actresses get me confused! It was Asia Argento, Bourdain’s ex-girlfriend, who was sleeping with the 17 year old kid. It was McGowan who betrayed her bestie Argento! So confusing! And McGowan, who says she is now “binary” (hey! so is my computer!), is living her binary life with “Rain Dove Dubilewski,” a lovely binary something (a “gender nonconforming” thing).
And she DID NOT FLEE to the fashion show. She was planning to move to London all along, which is where she is now.
With women like you, who needs men?
Please recap this show. I watch it when I can but read your recaps faithfully. Thanks TT!!
Dorit is unwatchable tv and the show jumped the shark with this episode.
Yes, please recap MDLLA! I couldn’t stand watching Pk and Dorit knowing how full of shit the whole thing was. These two run up debts living like millionaires and then file for Bankruptcy. I can’t stand Dorit and her fake accent. Another reason I stopped watching RHBH. Thanks for the recap TT!
I would love if you recapped MDLLA and, when it comes back, MDLNY. I am thrilled you recapped this episode. Knowing already (from you) that PK does not own the house, this episode particularly pissed me off. What a douche.
Keep up the recaps please, TT! I love them. And I watch this (and MDLNY) show.
Yes!!!!! Recap please!
Rose plead “No Contest” last week which aviolded her jail.
Sometimes I watch a show BECAUSE you recap it!
(Thank you for “Killing Eve”)
Killing Eve was so fantastic…hope there is another season
Yes, yes, yes. Please continue to recap this show.
This show is fake AF. I know a seller who was on the show and he said every conversation with the agents wS set up.
As little as i think of Dorit, she WAS robbed. The LAPD posted items recovered and i saw at least 1 birkin bag with her initials
But the sales are real. In the beginning when the show was new, I tracked a lot of the sales wondering about authenticity. Just because they may stage some of the dialogue does not mean the sales are fake.
I never said the sales werent real, my friend really did sell his house, but everything ON CAMERA was set up and FAKE AF
@Calipatti- you pretty much summed it up. I am not going to get into a lengthy back and forth with anyone. I am entitled to believe what I want despite what anyone else thinks.
Yes please!! Literally the first thing I thought of is you when I saw that PK and Dorit were on. LOVE Josh Flagg. So much. He knows of what he speaks. This is a good show with great “realty porn”!! Thanks!!
I’ve really enjoyed the first two episodes and will keep watching (and reading recaps). They are pouring more money into the production and it looks great. I enjoy watching Tracy. I love her style, she is bad ass, successful, competitive and still cool at the same time. I can actually say I respect her (from what we see). I also love that she has the confidence to hire such a gorgeous young thing and she’s not worried about “competing” with her. Hard to believe Tracy has socialized with the miserable and pathetic bitchenny. I used to love watching josh Flagg too but he’s gotten a bit dull lately and the coddled princeling thing is becoming a bit of a schtick. It is HILARIOUS how insecure josh Altman is about his lowly middle class (ha) upbringing and I love how Flagg pushes all his buttons without even trying. Altman disgusts me. Anyway long story short yes please recap
I simply love you Dolphin, but please avail yourself of the commenting rules and if your stupid nickname is about Bethenny, I will love you a tad bit less. Also, Altman is a schmarmy real estate hag. But there is no denying he is good at is job and every franchise needs a villain and the two Joshes are vying for that spot.
After the heads-up on the PK aspect to episode 2, I am going to fast forward thru their lying bullshit scenes — thank you for that!
I love MDLLA because I dream of living in Malibu if I won the lottery. To that end, I used to love Madison then he got too buff and boy toy mad for my taste.
LOL @Altman being a real estate hag!
Obviously, I am voting to have TT recap the show. I was disappointed this recap was all about PK & Dorit. I believe they were robbed as right after it happened, I saw the news coverage. Since the house is off the market, we should not have to deal with them any more.
The house as not been off the market since it was listed in 2017.You seem utterly confused about what is going on here.
Zillow does show that it was listed for rent though in july for 40k
The narrative on the show said they took it off the market after they got robbed.
Loved seeing a recap here on TT! I’m an East Coaster but I much prefer the LA edition of this show. Flagg’s an OG, I like the Brits, and Tracy seems cool! Yeah, Dorit & PK are grifters but why not just roll with the assclownery? I liked seeing the house — no matter who owns it/the facts — in detail. (Those front stairs though. Wheeze!)
Maybe I am totally off base here, but if Tracy is a real friend and wanted to help Rose, wouldn’t she have cut her commission? She earned almost $100,000 on the transaction (buyer and seller commission based on the selling price?).
I don’t think Tracy makes all of that herself. She does work for a firm and have a team etc. I don’t think it’s her call to make.
When I told my mother about who PK and Dorit really were she was floored. She had no idea about their back story.
I do love this show! I totally enjoy Josh Altman. He is suck a dick, but in the beginning when he fell for Heather was so fun to watch. He was actually cute, but trying so hard to hide it! LOL
Josh Flagg is a hoot and the Brits are fun as well.
I love reading your re-caps and you always make me laugh! You had me at the first sentence “pretending to be homeowners”.
Please keep up the good work!! 🙂
I watch the show but love reading your take on the situations/episodes.
Plz TT. Recap. It’s fun to see how the other half live w houses n how they act. Arrogant etc
